Sales Opportunity Tracker was conceived by Jeffrey Mayer, a long time proponent of the popular Contact Manager, ACT!
SalesOpportunityTracker.com is designed to help you close more sales, in less time and with less effort.
It does this by coaxing you to:
- Move sale forward,
- Find the decision makers,
- Identify the customer’s problems,
- Discover the decision making process.
One of the beauties of web based or hosted applications is the speed (and huge savings) with which you can be up-and-running. With Sales Opportunity Tracker you should be up and running in less than five minutes. With SalesOpportunityTracker.com you can:
- Log in anywhere. From the office, from home, while you are on the road. You have round-the-clock access to your opportunities.
- Five-minute learning curve. SalesOpportunityTracker.com is easy enough to use that you could be up and running in less than five minutes.
- Depending on your typing skills, you can create new opportunities in less than a minute.
- You can enter as much or as little info about your opportunities as you wish. Unlike some CRM programs that have ‘forced fields’ which are more of a hinderance than anything else.
- See an overview of your opportunity. Get all the data you need in one simple screen. The screen I found to be a little cluttered, but the alternatives are often more confusing.
- Record key opportunity information. Keep all of your key opportunity information in a single place where you can view it anywhere and any time. All you need is Internet access.
- Identify all key decision makers. View all the information about your decision makers on a single screen.
- Keep track of which opportunities need your attention.
- Every time you log in, SalesOpportunityTracker.com shows you Who you need to call, Their phone number, and What you plan to talk to them about. See running totals of potential sales and commissions. Look at a week’s total or a year’s total. Keep track of your closing ratios. SalesOpportunityTracker.com keeps track of your closing ratios – in real time – so you can improve your sales effectiveness. This can be a great motivator.
The rather limited feature set can actually be a bonus. With unnecessary features you run the risk of turning your sales people into computer boffins, spending more time behind the computer than selling.
The cost of Sales Opportunity Tracker is quite high compared to some other entry-level hosted CRM applications. You must very carefully weigh up exactly what your needs (versus your wants) are when doing comparisons.
Sales Opportunity Tracker offers a fully refundable 30 day Trial of the product. If you wish to continue using it, you will be billed $62 per month thereafter.
